The Crew's Cupid Intelligence Institute included a number of Departments with specific purposes, each of which was led by a [[Prefect]]. | The Crew's Cupid Intelligence Institute included a number of Departments with specific purposes, each of which was led by a [[Prefect]]. The Prefects, alongside a few other “Cupids of Importance” such as the head operatives of the [[Scarlet Wings]] and [[Blue Feather]], made up the [[Cupid Parliament]]. New Departments were typically opened on the authority of the [[Copper-Colored Council of Elders]] to shunt away debates which were going in circles in the Parlimanet; as a result many were largely useless in practice, existing only to ensure that the Parliamentary Cupids would stop arguing about their topics rather than because a Department was actually expected to yield real answers. The [[Supreme Quaestor]], however, seemed to genuinely believe the Intelligence Institute's destiny was to produce true, absolute knowledge. He had the authority to disband Departments if he deemed them to be disappointing or even counter-productive. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Magic Trick (novel)|Magic Trick]]'') | ||

At some point prior to 2019, the [[Supreme Quaestor]] disbanded the Institute's [[Department of Philosophy]] for heretically questioning whether there was such a thing as absolute knowledge in the first place. This led to Department-member [[Valerius-1497]]'s transfer to the [[Department of Problem-Solving]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Magic Trick (novel)|Magic Trick]]'') | |||
